…broader design topic. Such as the one running in 2012 on “British Design: Innovation in The Modern Age 1948 – 2012” (the 2 years that London has hosted the Olympics).

…initiatives both before the trip and once on board. The headline grabbing innovations in cruising tend to be about big features from land being brought onto ships like Broadway / Las Vegas shows, ice rinks, water shows and major recording stars to host concerts.

HILTON MILLENIUM HOTEL, NEW YORK, USA: noisy due to ground zero building

…it on this trip. The hotel is right next to the famous Century 21 discount label department store and an easy 10 minute walk to South Street Sea Port area with its shops and museums and the major drop off and pick up for the round Manhattan bus tours.

…ke design. And of course, they have trolls everywhere. Always check on the label where they’re made. I would stress again that Norway is very expensive. The currency is the Norwegian kroner, and because it’s not the Euro, the exchange rate is more complicated, it’s easy to get confused about how much you’re paying. Make sure you understand it.

In short, were what you bring and wear was low on the list. Personal Feel The third thing was with a maximum of 312 guests and 200 crew.

…ribbean and probably anywhere in the world is their Music Walk. This is an innovation they’ve been rolling out across their ships. How many of the Music Walk features they have will depend on which ship you’re on. In the Music Walk there are a whole series of music venues all focusing on different types of music, so there’s BB King’s Blues Club, which is really popular – they have an eight-piece band here, and they play really great, funky blues m…
